Oct. 17: Let’s Talk about Sex in Toronto – Israeli Sex Therapist to Share Insights at Canadian Friends of Sheba Medical Center Event

Gila Bronner, a sex therapist from Israel’s Sheba Medical Center, Tel HaShomer, is visiting Toronto to talk about sexuality and happiness in long-term relationships. Members of the media are invited to attend this event.

Canadian Friends of Sheba Medical Center will hold a lecture on October 17th featuring a talk from Gila Bronner, a senior sex therapist and supervisor at Israel’s Sheba Medical Center, Tel HaShomer. Members of the press are invited to attend and listen to Bronner’s expert insights on sexuality in the modern age of relationships and how intimacy can improve our overall health.

“My talk will focus on two common challenges of life: the chase for happiness and the chase for love,” said Bronner. “We are happiest when our ties with others are deep and meaningful and when we can be generous towards ourselves and others without expecting a reward in return. Satisfying our sexuality, in both the erotic and non-erotic senses, also plays an important role in determining happiness, since better sexual health contributes to stronger physical and emotional health.”
